Quality Foods Market is an aptly named gem in Tampa. I’d call it a hidden gem but with perfect 5-star reviews on OpenTable, it seems the secret is out. For the second year in a row, it has earned the top Diners Choice slot in the Tampa metro area. You can visit the market and restaurant at 16307 N Florida Avenue. You can see a full list of Diners Choice Award recipients in Tampa here. The best overall restaurants include Psomi, Paul’s Fusion Kitchen, and Caffee Paradiso.
The market/restaurant offers a unique culinary experience, featuring authentic Italian cuisine, in a relaxed, elevated casual, and intimate atmosphere. Enjoy a seasonally-inspired, from-scratch menu, featuring both classic and modern pastas; hand-cut steaks from USDA Certified Premium Hereford Heritage 1881 Beef; New Zealand Lamb Chops; USDA Certified Prime Veal; and the freshest seafood available flown in from around the world throughout the week.
